Anyone using the "No Lock" app?

I was using this for about a month because I heard it was the only app that was reported as working properly on the Atrix to disable the lock out when the screen times out. Lately though, it appears since the last update to that app, I think it's been behaving badly. My phone has been freezing a LOT and my screen scrolling acting wonky, the dumb buttons stop working. I've been experimenting and this seems to be the culprit. It usually starts happening after the phone has been turned on for about half a day. Because of that delay it's been really hard to pin down the culprit app, but I'm pretty sure this is the one. There's been a few recent comments about this on the this app's reviews in the Market. Anyone else using the latest update to No Lock and having similar experiences?
 
If you end up looking for an alternative, Widgetsoid has a button to disable auto lock and also lock so you don't have to press the power button every time. When I leave the phone on my desk I disable auto lock and then use lock to turn the screen off, all from my home screen.

It also has other functions like screen brightness, wifi/bt on/off, etc.

This is what I use as well. So far no issues to report. When activated, if my screen will time out if I press the power button to turn the screen back on it brings me back to where I left off.

Without auto lock enabled, you can also use the volume buttons to wake after timing out or manually locking.
